Clock is Ticking

Follow up

I wasn’t sure if I wanted to post what I did last week since it’s somewhat political, but I’m glad I did. I got a lot of positive response and quite a bit of traffic to the site,[^baref] and most importantly, got DACA on people’s minds. Unfortunately, a proposed bipartisan bill didn’t pass the Senate earlier this week. The only thing that is keeping DACA alive is that the Supreme Court is meeting today to discuss if the self-imposed termination of the original executive order might have violated the Administrative Procedure Act.

The clock is ticking.

Some Housekeeping

If you look back at my very first post, I’m a fiddler. Well, it started again this week. I was all set on a new look for my site.1 Worked on it for a little bit, was disappointed, and took it down. But I did end up adding a cool little progress bar at the top of the page so you can see how much of the post you’ve read. Go ahead and scroll. See? Pretty cool. You’re welcome, dear reader.

And Now for Something a Little Lighter

Last Saturday we had our first baby shower and I’m incredibly thankful for all those who helped. It truly meant a lot to the both of us. Thank you for your presence and your presents.2 Now we’re seeing all the little things that are going to help give him character, his clothes, toys, bottles, and diapers.

Oh, the diapers. I can’t wait.3

The baby shower was a nice reminder that he’s coming, practically, any day now. We actually just got news that his due date is moving up 4 days. The clock is ticking. I need to keep watch because I don’t know the day or the hour.4

The only thing I know is that I can’t wait for the world to meet Baby Jonah.
